Booth & airflow
Dimensions, lining, lighting and cross-draft ventilation matched to the process.
Industrial Sandblasting Booths
Sandblasting booths and blast rooms combine controlled ventilation, abrasive recovery and dust collection for manual surface preparation of large industrial parts.

Every component must work as one recovery circuit.
A blasting booth is more than an enclosed room. Airflow must keep the operator’s working zone visible, spent abrasive must be collected efficiently and reusable media must return to the blast pot without carrying excessive dust or debris.
Atlas engineers and supplies complete systems around the workpiece size, abrasive type, blasting capacity and daily operating hours, including the booth, recovery equipment, separator, dust collector and pressure blasting unit.
Sandblasting booth equipment includes the pressure blast pot, abrasive elevator unit, separator and dust collector. Automatic floor sweeping supports abrasive recovery; it does not by itself make the blasting operation automatic.
Abrasive recovery
Manual, partial-floor or automatic full-floor collection and recycling options.
Dust control
Cartridge filtration, pulse cleaning and dust discharge sized for the blasting load.
System components
Five parts of a complete sandblasting installation.
01
Sandblasting Booths
Enclosed abrasive blasting rooms contain the process and create a controlled working environment for manual surface preparation of steel structures, vehicles and industrial components.
- Heavy-duty modular wall and ceiling panels
- Abrasion-resistant internal rubber lining
- Protected high-output lighting
- Vehicle, product and personnel access doors
- Booth dimensions engineered around the workpiece
02
Automatic Floor Sweeping Systems
Floor recovery channels collect spent abrasive during operation and transfer it toward the recycling equipment. The arrangement reduces manual shovelling and shortens booth cleaning time.
- Partial-floor or full-floor recovery layouts
- Mechanical or pneumatic collection selected for the project
- Flush floor design where building conditions permit
- Service access for inspection and maintenance
03
Automatic Abrasive & Grit Recovery Systems
Collected media is lifted, screened and separated before reusable abrasive returns to the storage hopper and blast pot. Dust, fines and oversized contamination are removed from the working mix.
- Bucket elevator or project-specific transfer arrangement
- Media screening and air-wash separation
- Storage hopper and controlled return to the blast pot
- Designed around steel grit, garnet or the approved abrasive
04
Dust Collection Units
The extraction system maintains directional airflow through the booth and captures airborne dust in cartridge filters. Fan capacity and filtration area are calculated from booth size and blasting intensity.
- High-efficiency cartridge filters
- Automatic compressed-air pulse cleaning
- Dust hopper and collection container
- Differential-pressure monitoring options
- Maintenance platforms and safe filter access
05
Pressure Blast Pots
The pressure blast pot meters abrasive into the compressed-air stream and feeds the blasting nozzle. Capacity and valve configuration are selected for the required blasting time and media.
- Single-operator pressure blasting configuration
- Remote control and deadman safety circuit
- Abrasive metering valve and moisture separation options
- Integrated connection to the automatic recovery system
Engineering inputs
System sizing starts with the workpiece and abrasive load.
Workpiece
Maximum dimensions, weight, handling method and access required around the product.
Production
Target surface standard, daily blasting hours, nozzle count and compressed-air availability.
Abrasive
Media type, grain size, consumption, recovery rate and contamination expected from the parts.
Site
Building layout, pit construction, exhaust route, noise constraints and maintenance access.
Frequently asked questions
Choosing a blasting booth and recovery system.
Is full-floor abrasive recovery always necessary?
No. Manual recovery, partial-floor sweeping and full-floor automatic recovery are selected according to production volume, booth size, labour requirements and investment level.
Can used grit be returned directly to the blast pot?
Reusable abrasive should first pass through screening and separation so dust, fines and oversized debris do not reduce blasting performance or damage the equipment.
How is the dust collector sized?
Sizing depends on booth cross-section, required airflow, abrasive type, dust load and filter velocity. The extraction and make-up air arrangement must be calculated as one system.
